One.
This was definitely not an effect that could be achieved by a filter, let alone a software processing.
Because the photos processed by these two technologies were subtractions from the original photos. It improved the color effect of the photos, but destroyed the authenticity of the photos, especially the software smart filter. It was okay to look at the processed photos occasionally, but it could drive people crazy if they looked at it too much.
The more skilled a photographer was, the more taboo it was to use a filter.
Using a filter occasionally was a pleasure, but now almost everyone would violently use a software filter to cover the flaws in the photo itself when taking a photo.
The monotonous filter was simply a blatant "visual trampling", empty and vulgar.
On Twitter and Facebook, this kind of visual trampling was everywhere. The situation of the boys was slightly better. On the accounts of the girls in the disaster areas, 99.9% of the photos were filtered by the software.
This phone changed this.
Valerie and the assistant photographer, Eilife, had forgotten about words.
Even when Valerie saw the assistant pointing the phone at the crowd, and there was no camera on the back of the phone, she didn't know what words to use to describe her feelings.
But she knew that from now on, all women who loved beauty would go crazy for the second generation magic crystal phone.
What was the use of a phone that could completely strip the existing light and perfectly fit the different lights in various natural environments?
Valerie was a reporter, and being good at associating was her specialty.
She had already imagined countless girls taking selfies at home or in some random corner, and then clicking with their fingers to match themselves with the most perfect natural light, and then uploading it on Twitter, receiving a lot of praise and being licked to the sky by boys.
What was the difference between a top photographer and an ordinary girl who loved to take selfies?
The difference was in the understanding of the light and angle before taking a photo. There was no ugly selfie in this world. If there was, it was because she hadn't met a powerful photographer.
The more powerful a photographer was, the more obsessed they were with the lighting of the scene. Valerie knew a few dedicated photographers in the industry. In order to take a photo of the scenery, they could even stay at the shooting site for a week, just to capture the moment when the sky was clear, blue, and cloudless, and the sun shone down at the most suitable angle.
There were also photographers who even flew the materials they wanted to shoot out of the country to be shot in the most suitable sunshine.
But now …
This magic crystal phone could directly extract the existing light. All the user had to do was move their fingers and they could miraculously create an impossible photo.
When Valerie had just selected the dusk function, she had even seen "such as Miami dusk", "Hawaii dusk", "Provence dusk", "Simayala dusk", and so on. These were all fantastic natural lights, and even the date of the lights could be adjusted.
These were definitely not the effects of filters, but the beautiful materials of the scene and the real environment.
Users could use this phone to capture natural light at any place in the world at any time.
God ~ How did this phone do it?
What was even scarier was that apart from light editing, there were also a bunch of functions that Valerie had never heard of before, and functions that the phone camera couldn't do.
For example, [Full Color at Night] and [Infrared Image] functions could only be achieved by special electronic imaging equipment.
"I'll buy the phone." The voice of the camera assistant, Elif, sounded like a roar, saving Valerie from her fantasy.
"Hello, sir. 1400 euros. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"
"By card, no, no, no ~ I'm not buying just one. Let me think, how much money do I have in my card?" The camera assistant, Elif, hurriedly took out his iPhone and opened the message to check his bank balance.
"3,012 euros …" Elif originally thought he had a lot of savings, but now he was anxious. "Valerie, can you lend me 1,200 euros?"
"What do you want to do?" Valerie subconsciously covered her pocket. "No, I have to use my credit card later. My salary for this month has all been returned to the card. You have 3,000 euros, isn't that enough to buy two phones? "
"You don't understand, you don't understand." Elif kept shaking his head and said in a low voice, "This is definitely a phone that can cause an earthquake in the photography world. Didn't you notice that this phone doesn't even have a camera?"
"I took a closer look just now. When the camera function is turned on, the back of the phone where the camera is supposed to be, actually has a circle of rainbow-like dot structure lit up. I'm guessing this is their secret weapon. It's simply too magical. I've never heard of any technology that can do this. "
"I want to borrow money, Valerie. Do you believe that within a week, you won't be able to buy this phone even if you have the money?"
After saying that, Elif hurriedly opened his phone's contact list, looking for someone to borrow money from.
Valerie gritted her teeth and bought two phones in one go, becoming the first "nouveau riche" customer to buy a phone in the entire store.
Not everyone was a stubborn fool.
Now there were almost a thousand customers crowded in the flagship store. When they saw the price of 1,400 euros, most of them felt that they were fooled by Monster Industries. However, among this majority, only a third of them chose to leave angrily.
The remaining people were angry, but they wanted to know how this phone was different from ordinary phones. How dare it be sold at a sky-high price of 1,400 euros?
This way, it would be more persuasive for them to criticize it on the Internet.
Anyway, it didn't cost a euro to ask the salesperson for a sample phone to take a look.
With one look, they saw an earthquake-like accident.
5.8 inches, a full-size screen without even a trace of extra frame.
A dream display that surpassed all display imaging effects.
There was no camera, but in the impossible, a compound eye imaging function that created miracles.
4 millimeters, a body thickness that broke through the limits of industrial manufacturing.
The use time was five times that of an Apple phone. With one charge, the movie could be watched from midnight to the next day without interruption. The plasma battery alone was more than two months of standby.
There was also ultrasonic fingerprint unlocking technology, ceramic resonant earpieces, an on-off sensing area with temperature recognition function, and so on. All of this made the consumers who were lucky enough to enjoy it at the scene want to give themselves a big slap in the face.
1,400 euros?
F * * k ~ This is called a sky-high price?
This was clearly the most favorable price given by a company with a conscience that was hard to come by in a hundred years.
1,400 euros, this amount of money couldn't even afford a good lens on a SLR camera. It couldn't even buy a set of professional software filter materials. However, Monster Industries waved its hand and directly integrated all the functions that could be realized into their compound eye camera, and did a better job.
People who knew the industry began to call to borrow money to buy a few more. The tone of borrowing money was either roaring, begging, or persuading with reason and emotion.
People who didn't know caught the salesperson turning it over and over again. The phone was so thin, would it be like the previous Apple 6, prone to the "Transformer" situation? Could the phone be waterproof? Was it resistant to falling? Would the screen be broken with a knock? If the screen was broken, could there be a free warranty? Was there a discount for the new phone?
People who didn't know also wanted to buy it, but the price of 1,400 euros was also not a small expense for them.
Half an hour later, the hall on the first floor was like a vegetable market, and there were more than 100 people waiting at the checkout counter.
The salesperson was originally an emergency position before the local salesperson arrived. Most of them knew English, but few knew German. Many customers couldn't speak English. In front of the display counter, they were anxious to stretch out their feet and gesture with the salesperson.
In the end, the salesperson was so anxious that he had no choice but to take out the phones in the display cabinet that were only for display and not for sale.
"Plop ~"
A magic crystal mobile phone was directly thrown into a plastic basin by the salesperson. After throwing it, the salesperson who could speak German shouted, "Don't ask me if the IP68 dustproof and waterproof level is real or not. It's impossible."
"I threw the phone into the water. Everyone can operate it in the water at any time. If it gets short-circuited in the water, everyone will be given one."
The IEC 60529 standard was the international standard for dustproof and waterproof electronic products. The IP68 of the magic crystal phone meant that its dustproof level was 6 and its waterproof level was 8. Both were the highest standards. Level 8 waterproof meant that electronic products could be immersed in the water without being damaged by water.
In other words, whether taking a bath or swimming on the beach, one could safely hold the magic crystal phone in his hand and play with the water.
This scene made the customers at the scene excited again. They scrambled to operate the phone immersed in the water.
From the initial feeling of being cheated to now wanting to spend all their credit cards to buy the magic crystal phone, the hundreds of customers at the scene spent half an hour.
Each flagship store was stocked with 5,000 units.
This number was amazing enough. Now there were 170 flagship stores open in Europe, which meant that there were 850,000 magic crystal phones in Europe.
From Hua Xia to Europe, it was only a ten-hour flight time. Mobile phones were personal electronic products. A cargo plane could fit 850,000 mobile phones. Therefore, in the sales department's plan, the 850,000 mobile phones could be sold in Europe for at least a few weeks. When the inventory was reduced to one-third, they could restock.
That was the plan. However, the 170 flagship stores in Europe opened at 8 a.m. and closed at 8 p.m.
The 850,000 mobile phones had been sold out …
Many customers who came anxiously surrounded the flagship store door, waving their bank cards and beating their chests.
This was a miracle!
Before the launch of the magic crystal mobile phone, apart from some negative publicity in the media throughout Europe, consumers had almost no positive understanding of the magic crystal mobile phone, and the Monster Industry had not advertised on TV.
However, from zero to some flagship stores overnight, the compound camera of the magic crystal phone was more effective than any advertisement and any publicity.
In the evening, someone even bought more than a hundred magic crystal phones in one breath. This kind of person must be a "scalper" even if he used his toes to think.
For this kind of "scalper" with foresight, Ye Qing not only did not have the slightest restriction, but also gave the green light and gave a 99% discount.
It couldn't be helped. The rarer something was, the more precious it was.
If Europeans didn't experience what was hard to get, how could they understand the preciousness of the magic crystal phone?
